We’re excited to announce a major update to our search functionality, delivering a smarter and more user-friendly experience. This overhaul brings powerful improvements to how users discover content.

Consolidated Information

We've removed separate tabs for Pages, Content, and Files. Now, all results appear in a single, streamlined list, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

Enhanced Sorting and Filtering

Sort Options:
- Relevance (default)
- Newest first
- Oldest first
Filter Capabilities:
- Last Modified Date: All time, Past week, Past month, Past year
- Department filters
- Content Type filters

Improved UI and User Experience

Predictive Search Suggestions: The search bar now helps you complete your query as you type.
Highlighted Phrase Matches: Matching phrases are now highlighted in the results for quicker recognition.
Clear Metadata: Search results now show “last edited” dates and event dates, helping users quickly identify content freshness and upcoming or past events.
Visual Cues: Icons help distinguish between pages, events, and PDFs at a glance.
Did You Mean: Spelling suggestions for misspelled words

Smarter Relevancy Matching

Word Variants: Singular and plural forms are treated equally.
Stemming Support: Variations of words are now grouped.
- Example: “parks” matches “parking,” “parked,” “park”
Homophone Recognition: Matches on homophones are included.
- Example: “they’re,” “their,” “there”
Stop Word Optimization: Common filler words like “a,” “the,” and “of” are intelligently ignored for better results.

Advanced Configuration

Admins now have greater control over search behavior with flexible widget settings. You can choose which content types appear in search results, either globally via the layout page or locally on individual pages. This ensures search results are tailored to the needs of your site and audience. Learn more in the Add and Manage the Search Widget on a Page article.
